Canadian Book Challenge: 2020-2021: 06/27/20

14th Canadian Book Challenge

July 1st, Canada Day, is also the starting day for the annual Canadian Books Challenge. It's been running for thirteen years and this fourteenth year will be the second year of it being hosted on the Canadian Bookworm blog.

I have been participating since 2009. While the official goal is to read thirteen (or one per province), my personal goal is 52 or more. That means posting at least one review of a Canadian book each week. My Canadian book review day is Tuesday.

Books read and reviewed in 2020-2021
